Blake Lively wowed fashion fans on October 28 at the CFDA Awards, making a stylish appearance with celebrated designer Michael Kors. Dressed in a chic all-white look crafted by Kors, the actress turned heads on the red carpet, radiating confidence and glamour.
Her ensemble featured a fitted white bodysuit paired with a sequin wrap skirt and blazer, all topped off with a dazzling diamond necklace. She completed the look with iconic red-soled Christian Louboutin heels, while her voluminous, wavy blonde hair gave a nod to the retro glamour of Bond Girls and ’90s supermodels.
This bold and sophisticated look marked a striking shift from Lively’s recent floral-inspired wardrobe, which she sported over the summer while promoting It Ends With Us. For that press tour, she embraced outfits that mirrored her character Lily Bloom, a florist, with flower-filled designs. Although her vibrant wardrobe captivated audiences, behind-the-scenes talk hinted at creative differences with her director and co-star, Justin Baldoni. Lively stayed out of the limelight for a short period afterward, but returned to social media in late September, delighting fans with glimpses of her personal life.
In the months following the movie’s release, Lively has been enjoying quality time with her family and close friends. She and husband Ryan Reynolds, along with their friend Taylor Swift, have had a busy social calendar. In August, the couple celebrated Lively’s 37th birthday at Swift’s Rhode Island mansion. Two months later, they were seen at Swift’s Eras Tour concerts in New Orleans, joining the crowd in singing and dancing along to Swift’s hits.
On October 25, Lively and Reynolds partied in Swift’s VIP tent at the Caesars Superdome, and the next day, they were caught on camera singing along to “Look What You Made Me Do,” a song that Swift released in 2017. Dressed in a sleek black outfit and gold jewelry, Lively sang every lyric, her excitement evident as she cheered on her close friend’s performance.
Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds have been married since 2012, and they share four children: daughters James, 9, Inez, 7, Betty, 4, and their son, Olin, who was born earlier this year. The family often supports Swift on tour, making appearances at her shows along with their three eldest daughters.
Lively’s show-stopping appearance at the CFDA Awards, alongside her stylish outings with friends and family, has certainly solidified her status as a fashion icon and Hollywood favorite.
